Walter Foley Obituary

Walter T. Foley Jr., 48, of Vernon, CT, husband of Chantelle (Rosa) Foley, passed away peacefully on Monday, April 6, 2020 at Hartford Hospital with his family by his side. He was born and raised in Manchester, CT, the son of Patricia A. (Busha) Foley and the late Walter T. Foley, Sr. He moved to Vernon when he got married in 1996. Jr loved and lived his life to the fullest. His infectious laugh could turn heads everywhere he went. Jr was a sports fanatic, loving the Dallas Cowboys, the Boston Celtics, and the Boston Red Sox his entire life, but Jr's absolute favorite sport was watching his three boys play football, he was by far, their biggest fan. In addition to his wife Chantelle, Jr is survived by his sons, Nicholas, Shawn, and Kevin all of Vernon; sister, Deanna Foley, and her partner Stacey Diemesevich, of Manchester; brother Daniel Foley, of Manchester, his mother and father in law, James and Renelle Rosa of Vernon; brother in law, Jason Rosa, of Willington and numerous cousins, extended family, and friends that he considered his family. We would like to thank the Hartford hospital doctors, nurses, palliative care staff, and social work staff for their constant care and dedication to Jr's needs for the last 23 days. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to a charity that you know Jr would have loved. A celebration of Jr's life will be held at a later date.

I havent seen Walt in years but I remember meeting him through my boyfriend who was very close to him. He was very kind to me and treated me like I was a friend immediately... and his laugh. It made me feel like all was ok in the world. All this from someone I had just met. Thank You Jr,... for your kindness and for sharing a few moments of your life with me. My heart goes out to the family and friends who are grieving such a tremendous loss. Your all in my prayers.

I am so so sorry to hear that Walter has passed. Its been a very long time since we have graduated together but would often see he and Chantelle out and each time I was always greeted with a larger than life smile and a caring demeanor. He was very proud of his boys this I know from Facebook and Chantelle you were his rock. You guys were always so cute together when I saw you out and both laughing and smiling all the time. My sincere thoughts and prayers

He was such a good role model for my grandson. His whole family was loving and supportive and adopted my grandson as one of their own. I have so much respect for all of them. JR will be missed so much by everyone that knew him.
